New Pleskian
Hi guys,
I'm using Plesk Onyx 18.0.28 Update 3 with dovecot and a let's encrypt certificate. The certificate is assigned to the mail server via "Tools & Settings --> SSL/TLS Certificates. About every three months my mail certificate expires and supposedly isn't renewed. However, the error seems to lay in the dovecot.conf. The file path pointing to the certificate is wrong. Plesk seems to be expecting:

Code:
# PEM encoded X.509 SSL/TLS certificate and private key.
ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem
ssl_key =  </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem

While the config shows:

Code:
# PEM encoded X.509 SSL/TLS certificate and private key.
ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/private/ssl-cert-and-key.pem
ssl_key =  </etc/dovecot/private/ssl-cert-and-key.pem

Changing the paths to point to dovecot.pem will work for some time, but sooner or later Plesk(?) will change them pack to point to ssl-cert-and-key.pem.

A fix would be highly appreciated :)
